Altenew April 2022 Gardens Around the World Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in total prizes)!

Do you like the look of ‘line art’? It’s such a fun way to stretch your stamps and so simple to create!

But first, this post is part of a Hop celebrating a new release from Altenew so you should have arrived here from PREETI’s wonderful Blog.

If you haven’t used line art before then you are in for a surprise. It simply means stamping the orignal image but not to colour it in the ‘usual’ way. These beautiful images such as this floral from the Castle Garden Stamp Set and the butterfly from the Meadow Reflections set look fabulous just stamped in black.

And for my pop of colour today I masked some simple lines on the card front and blended a few fun colours together.

  1. What a great way to add color when you don’t feel like coloring the images. Such a lovely card, Therese.

  2. Love this concept Therese. This is yet another technique I’ve not come cross before and such a beautiful card. I particularly like how the butterfly has that sketchy look. Thank you once again for sharing your amazing creative talent ❤️

  3. I love the clean lines you used on this card. The color with the basic black is stunning but simple.

  4. Absolutely beautiful,would never have thought to do something like that, so clever and very effective. Might have to try something similarm Thanks for the inspiration x

  5. Such a beautiful card! The Morning Flowers are my favorite from this release. Thanks for the inspiration!

  6. Gorgeous card Therese! I love that technique! Thanks so much for your inspiration! 🥰

  7. Love the new release. Don’t have many flower sets so I will be getting these! Love doing hops because you find so many new card makers to follow! Such a great way to not to have to color an image when in a hurry!

  8. Your lines of color are such a good idea! I am always looking for washi tape ideas and I think your idea will be great with washi tape. Thank you.

  9. Those whispers of color really add depth to the black stamping. I think it is very elegant. World gardens is gorgeous. I love the greenhouse… 😍

  10. What a deceptively simple card! I love the black stamped flowers and the colored stripes. So cool! TFS 🙂

  11. Your card is great! It is simple but stunning. I love the image and the stripes of color. Perfect.
